The annual CTBUH Tall + Urban Innovation Conference explores and celebrates the very best in innovative tall buildings, urban spaces, building technologies, and construction practices from around the world. Incorporating what was previously known as the CTBUH Annual Awards event, this conference sees the owner/developers, design, and engineer teams for 50+ Awarded projects present in front of an international audience and live juries for winning distinctions across several award categories. Hot topics in the building industry will also be explored through presentations in project rooms.

The event brings to Chicago, the home of the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, a critical cross-section of tall building owners, developers, occupiers, operators, designers, engineers, and builders—along with the interested public—to investigate the cutting edge in sustainable urbanism, presented by the world’s foremost examples.
